X4: Foundations 2.00 released, X-News

EGOSOFT is happy to announce the availability of X4: Foundations Update 2.00 including the following main features:

Player owned shipyards, wharfs and equipment docks: Players can now build and operate their own shipyards. This allows leaving an even deeper impact on the game's economy. Build ships for yourself or deliver them to the war factions. Participate in the faction wars on the highest possible level or just make a lot of profitsss.

Steam Workshop integration: Starting with version 2.00 X4: Foundations now also supports installing game mods via the Steam workshop. This will make it easier than ever for players to try out some of the already existing cool X4 mods!

Rebalancing of fight and economy: With Update 2.00 we changed a lot of parameters of the game economy and fight balancing. The goals include making crew gaining experience a bit easier, but also making a lot of changes to the turret and capital ship fight balancing.

Egosoft is happy to announce the release of update 1.60. You can find the full changelog for 1.60 in the updated Current Build and Version Number topic.
We would also like to take this opportunity to share our near-future plans for X4: Foundations with our community!
Upcoming highlights are:

We are happy to announce today the availability of Update 1.50 of X4: Foundations. It adds the ability to ask people for directions, reintroduces a more talkative Betty shipboard computer and fixes a long list of issues. With this update, the game now also gets its first ever X online mode called Online Ventures.

To better cope with the influx of new players our forum server will be moving to better hardware today.
We expect a downtime of a few hours until everything is back online and hopefully much more responsive.
UPDATE: Forum server migration complete....
